Gees, imagine if videohub had his way? Have you checked out his past Palmy Highlights videos? He has them all mixed to Dubstep.

If there is music I don't like on a video clip it's easy to use the mute as I often do. It wasn't just the music being a problem tonight , it was the whole audio package.

Only gave us unofficall results. Never confirmed any results. As we where walking out there was a run off mentioned. Can anyone shed some light?

No, from our own points taken there were no run-offs, but as there were NO official results of teams races given all night, who knows. Were there relegations? Who knows? Was there a race result change somewhere? Who knows? Maybe there were some points changes we never knew of......... The commentators even suggested the Nelson vs Wanganui result may have been wrong - Nelson certainly seemed to think so as they lined up to collect the chequered flag only to be turned away - and said we should await the official result. We're still waiting........ As for the music, with so many of the country's best Superstock drivers present it was not required, and popped up at the most inopportune and annoying moments............ On track action - excellent!!

Yes well they did their best to ruin what was a good night of action on the track. Once again the punters will be bemoaning the lack of atmosphere at Waikaraka. Was there any "Bring back Aaron" T-shirts spotted ? There may be tomorrow night. ;D

yes it is a cheap look see , I don't think the camera work is too bad but I'm more feeling for the poor paying customers on site listening to the crap coming over the speakers. Commentary goes a long way to making or breaking a meeting. yes sadly there was a definite lack of anything interesting or even educated said...you know your getting the shiite commentary by the number of times they come to the audience...or just hyping on ..its poor, we all deserve better that that.....im glad im not the only one who noticed......hire a pro next time... Hickey would be great awesome racing though, looking forward to the second night, heart warming to see a decent crowd in, augers well for the future...

You could probably get AD's alzheimer suffering companion for free too in a package deal.

So many people available its hard to get this wrong for their "Bigest Night of the Year" I was there for 5 1/2 Seasons and loved the teams, the best part of the show was roving in the crowd and getting the antics of the fans who at a teams meeting is great just look at the noise that comes from the back straightaway..... I think the best teams Commentry was a Points Man and Grids Man, this is one in the same with a comments person and assoicate caller and then the ring leader who put all three together, I enjoyed my time at WP and Stockcar Racing can be "called" from anywhere thats my breif overview...

The only thing you've missed in your lineup Aaron, is somebody to talk to the drivers!! Add that in and you've got a great recipe.

well first visit to wp as a spectator for a few years, glad we sat near rissa and crew as they gave what seemed a very laclusture and dis jointed meeting some atmosphere, thanks guys, commentry was crap , nothing between races sweet fa info coming out of pits, i could have done better job on a roving mike, but then any one with a clue could have, and then the roving mike only as helpful as the bloke controling the buttons, and im sorry to say mr short legs has had his day, on track action was good but overall experince of the night has left me wondering weather it worth traveling back up for tonight, guess will wait see how we feel at about 4.

commentry was s#@t because kevin mcintyre was doing it... hes had his day & no good, & they guy helping him needs to wake up.. sounds like hes talking in his sleep hes that boring, without a doubt they shouldve got the no1 commentator in nz, paul hickey, with barry brown helping him.. thats why vegas has the best for there big meetings!!!!!

It was better than no coverage and a pretty good price to I thought.
My coverage was very stop start so is my internet provider no good? I'm on slingshot I did't seem to have problems with speedbox being stop start but I wouldn't have a clue if it's even broadcast th same way.
